To set up Amplitude Modulation (AM)
In the Waveform Generator Modulation Menu (under [Wave Gen] > Settings >
Modulation):
1 Press the Type softkey and turn the Entry knob to select Amplitude
2 Press the Waveform softkey and turn the Entry knob to select the shape
3 Press the AM Freq softkey and turn the Entry knob to specify the

Amplitude Modulation (AM) — the amplitude of the original carrier
signal is modified according to the amplitude of the modulating
signal. See
